The act of copulation and the members
employed are so repulsive, that if it
were notfor the beauty offaces and the
adornments of the actors and unbri-
dled passion, nature would lose the
human species.

Between the normal man who confines
the sadistic man to an impasse and the
sadistic man who makes this impasse a
way out, it is the latter who knows
more about the truth and logic of his
situation and whose knowledge of it is
deeper, to the point of being able to
help the normal man to understand
himself, by helping him to change the
conditions of all understanding.
